Weekend update...and Kinshachi Red label

So it’s been five days since we have posted some beer related info…and if you are like me, that is far too long to go without having, reading, or writing about beer. The boys have been busy here though, don’t think we just have been sitting around on our duffs. Last Friday night saw a DH, Nate, Nick, Rwandan, and Zimbabwean gathering outside the Toyohashi station that was second to none. There was an outdoor concert, however we were the only folk in attendance. The music was surprisingly good, and a few of The Premium Malt’s Black started the night with a bang!
This weekend also saw the commencement of Christmas shopping, which sucks. Stores are crowded, things are expensive, and even though I like people, I would rather spend time hanging out with them than buying presents for them. That’s just the way I feel! This weekend also was a good weekend for buying beer, because I found some excellent Maredsous Belgian Tripples on sale for only 300 yen at the international store in Toyohashi! Being the good friend that I am, I called Nate to inform him of the sale! Only by the time he arrived, the price on the beers had dropped from 300 yen to only 105 yen. So, he ended up getting the brews 200 yen cheaper than I did, and I officially don't like him anymore.
And I didn't drink it last weekend, but I realized that I never reviewed the Kinshachi Red Label Beer. I think I tried to forget about this beer even existing, because a few weekends ago Nate, I and the girls tried to go to Beer Circus to drink Land Beer on tap, and it was closed do to a wedding reception. I hope they get divorced.
Anyways, now it is time to write an in-depth review of this beer. If you recall, we stated in an earlier post that the Blue Label Kinshachi Beer from Nagoya is an excellent pilsner style beer and has great taste, but isn’t really worth its $5 price tag. I remember that beer well. What I don't remember—is anything at all about the Red Label Beer. We drank it after we had the Blue Label (and about 5 other beers) and honestly I can’t remember one thing about it. I think it was kinda pale, kinda amber, kinda nothing special. In fact, if I can’t remember anything about it, it must not have been that good. And at the same time, it must not have been that bad either. Anyway, it is not worth how much it costs, and when it comes to Land Beer Brewing and Kinshachi Beers, stick to the Miso Beer just for the novelty and buy a Green Tea Beer for someone you don’t like because it tastes like tea-pee.
Well, there you have it. I just taught six classes today and I am plum wore out. I think I am going to high tail it back to the apartment and relax with a Belgian beer in my apartment. I deserve it.
